Cryptocurrency Market Gears Up for FOMC Meeting, Volatility Expected for Bitcoin and Ethereum
As the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting approaches, the cryptocurrency market is bracing itself for potential volatility, especially for Bitcoin and Ethereum, according to analysts.
Renowned crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe underscored the significance of the upcoming FOMC decision, unemployment data, and the launch of ETFs in Hong Kong. He also highlighted the potential impact of these events on the price of Bitcoin.
Van de Poppe suggested that the market dynamics could change following the FOMC meeting. He also noted a historical pattern where Bitcoin experienced a decline before the FOMC and then recovered, indicating a possible repetition of this trend. Another crypto analyst, known as Crypto Kid, echoed concerns about the impact of the FOMC, emphasizing the importance of any indications of interest rate increases.

Furthermore, the analyst pointed out that rising inflation plays a crucial role in determining a potential interest rate increase, which could have a negative impact on the cryptocurrency market. Van de Poppe’s observation that Bitcoin’s recent movements suggest a market correction aligns with Crypto Kid’s cautious stance. Both experts suggested that the FOMC meeting could trigger significant market reactions and potentially influence the trajectory of Bitcoin’s price. Van de Poppe warned in a post on X about Bitcoin reaching a low point, stating:
“However, if the Fed pauses or lowers interest rates, Bitcoin’s price could experience an increase.”
Additionally, the influx from Hong Kong ETFs and the accumulation of Bitcoin by large investors has contributed to a recovery in Bitcoin’s price trajectory. Analysts also foresee a rebound to the $70,000 level if macroeconomic factors align favorably for Bitcoin.
